About this study

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the potential therapeutic effects of topical CBD products produced by Phoilex Ltd., specifically the Releaf Gel, in those diagnosed with atopic dermatitis. Patients will be routinely assessed via questionnaire, and physical measurements will be taken with respect to the affected area studied in order to judge clinical efficacy.

The main question[s] it aims to answer are:

  • Did you experience an immediate increase in skin hydration?
  • Did you experience a soothing or comforting feeling on your irritated skin area? Please explain where your affected area is located, and also include at what time point this occurred. Example: Affected Area: Palm, Time Point: 1-hour post-application
  • Upon the affected area being in the healing phase, was your skin itch/scratch free for 4/6/10/12 hours (please circle)?
  • Did you experience immediate relief from your skin inflammation?
  • Did the study cream absorb quickly into your skin, without any greasy feeling?
  • Has your skin flare disappeared in 2 week(s)?
  • Has your skin condition appearance improved? (Yes/No)

Participants will apply Phoilex Releaf Gel (a cream) to their affected areas of atopic dermatitis. The questions listed above shall be discussed and observations recorded at the 0 week, 1 week, 2 week, and 4 week time points. Additional monitoring questions may be asked of the participants to ensure the safety of the product. A chart will be provided to the participants to track Phoilex Releaf Gel usage (how many pumps, and time of day) throughout duration of the study.

We hypothesize that Releaf gel will be suitable to ameliorate the common signs and symptoms of atopic dermatitis as well as improve patient quality of life.
